Where's Eric! - Issue 19

August 1997

LEGENDS - Eric, David Sanborn, Marcus Miller, Joe Sample and Steve Gadd - not a bad line-up, is it? Opinion on the band name was mixed, but our reviews of the music are far more positive.JERRY WILLIAMS - You may not recognise him walking down the street, but you will have heard many of his songs without even realising it. He's played with Hendrix, Little Richard, Stevie Ray Vaughan - he's even been on stage with Eric at the Royal Albert Hall ! In our exclusive interview this issue, we find out what makes Jerry Williams tick(-tock)...CREAM BOX SET - They only lasted a couple of years but, as the first supergroup, the first band to sell a million copies of a double album and with a neat line in perms, they are worthy contenders for box set-dom.FAR EAST TOUR - EC's heading off to Japan and Korea this autumn.MARTIN GUITARS - We compare the two EC signature acoustics.FOR THE RECORD - News of EC's Hyde Park video release (plus an appearance with Sheryl Crow on her London video). Oh, and the chance to win copies too.IN MEMORIUM - Ronnie Lane / Gianni Versace.LETTERS - TDF, Hyde Park and media coverage are among the subjects aired this issue.TDF - News of the latest single releases and a promo interview transcript.BACK ISSUES - Get your hands on some ancient Where's ERIC! (and we're not talking about the editor). That ol' chestnut, Issue 7, gets the star treatment this time.And more!
